to the GENERIC config file. No more unresolved symbols. I can load the cxm
module and it sees the two tv cards but I do not seem to be able to read the
device. The error messages say it cannot attach cxm_iic. cxm_iic seems to be
in the kernel from the output of "kldstat -v".

Looking at the sources, it appeared that the major device number is 92. I was
unsure of the minor. I assumed 0 and did a mknod. I hope this is right.

As you know, I recompiled with the cxm driver built in and it crashed.

You asked about the lines preceding the
"cmx0: could not initialize video decoder"
line. I copied down a bunch more of the messages and combined them here
with the original ones I gave you. There could be typos, but I hope
I got it all correct.

I could not get a crash dump. It reported there was no crash dump when
rebooting on the other kernel. I had set dumpdev in /etc/rc.conf. I am
guessing it is because it never got far enough to to run any of the init
scripts which define the crash device. Since it had already panic'd it did not
seem to make a difference running "panic" from the DB prompt. It just gave me
the same register/address information dump that had already been printed.

I set the dump device to the swap partition in /boot/loader.conf but still did
not get a crash dump. After rebooting, on the other kernel, the startup
messages still said there was no core file (or something like that). The swap
partition is about twice the size of the amount of RAM, so that should not be
a problem.

However, I typed in the *first* 7 lines this time from the trace command in
the debugger. It's tedious typing those in manually, so hopefully this is
enough to be useful. I went back to where it did the cxm_attach(). Let me
know if more is needed.
